Description

This is a continuation of the Part 1 episode of the same title. Quote at the end:Tell the government that we do not want an act that is still discriminating against persons with disabilities. We want an anti-discrimination act. We want a Disability Discrimination Act, and we want the tribunal redress mechanism, the Disability Commission, and we want everybody to be protected under the act. Whether they live in houses and housing environments, or on university campuses, we want reasonable adjustments. We want everything sorted so that disabled persons can make complaints and other people can make complaints when they see abuse, harassment, and bullying of disabled persons. And these people will be anonymously protected under the Act.©️Talk Architecture 2023, Author: Naziaty Mohd Yaacob.  Photo credit [Anon] - image shows Naziaty giving a speech at Pusat Kecemerlangan Kejuruteraan dan Teknologi JKR (CREaTE) in 2018.
